Amazing Jacket

Ranked #2057 - Men's Technical Shells
January 7, 2009
I got this before going to Whistler over Christmas to go snowboarding for 10 days. The jacket arrived when promised and the quality and fit of the jacket is amazing. As this is my first time riding with a true shell, versus insulated jacket I was worried that is might not be warm enough. However, it worked perfectly when layered and gave me the flexibility I was looking for not only while riding but traveling. I would say that I am average as far as temperature goes but with a Patagonia Capaline 4 shirt and a Patagonia R2 fleece and this jacket I was as warm and dry as could be. I also liked the way the back of the jacket is a little longer which is great when sitting on the lift or strapping into my bindings. Since I layered, I was able to wear the fleece on the plane and packed the jacket in my carry on bag very easily. The other nice thing is now I have a great shell to wear almost year round and this jacket looks like it will last almost forever! Overall amazing jacket and I highly recommend you buy!!!!
